Just recently we had some friends from Maui stay with us last minute due to some unforeseen family drama on their families part. Chris and I were glad we were able to be there for them and that they felt close enough to call us.
Before they left, Karen (whom I used to work with at The Grand) left me with a poem that hit home on way too many levels.
Last weekend made me realize that no matter how young or old you are, whether you're still in high school or not, whether it's work, home, friends or family drama—EVERYONE has it. But we have to make sure to take time for the special things in life, 12 things to sum it up. And always be grateful for the days we have with our family and friends, drama or not.
1. Take time to dream .... it hitches your soul to the stars.
2. Take time to work .... it is the price of success.
3. Take time to think ... it is the source of power.
4. Take time to play ... it is the secret of youth.
5. Take time to read ... it is the foundation of knowledge.
6. Take time to worship .... it is the highway of reverence and washes the dust from your eyes.
7. Take time to help and enjoy friends ... it is the source of happiness.
8. Take time to love ... it is the one sacrament of life.
9. Take time to laugh .... it helps with life's loads.
10 Take time for beauty ... it is everywhere in nature.
11. Take time for health .... it is the true treasure of life.
12. Take time to plan .... it is the secret of being able to have time to take time for the first eleven things.
